Curious to hear if anyone scored above an 80% on any vendors practice exam (Schweser, AnalystNotes, even CFAI mock) and STILL failed the real thing. If you did, I'd be interested to learn a few things:

1. What, exactly, was your highest score on practice exam? And which vendor?
2. What band were you in on the real exam?
3. Did you retake the exam and pass? If so, how did your study methods change?
4. What do you feel is the biggest difference between practice and real thing? Nerves? Types of questions?

Thanks!

we are still struggling to pass it man... and also all mock exam are only 240 questions for so many concepts to master, so there is always a chance to fail the real exam, even if doing a lot of mock from different providers and scoring at least 80% for each is a good starting point to believe.

I'll even give impressive odds. An 80% or better on any of the mock exams is a really fine achievement for someone who is going to pass the exam easily.
